Patented Sept. 24, 1929 PATENT OFFICE LEN ,A. BANTA, OF CLEARFIELD, PENNSYLVANIA REFRIGERATOR DISPLAY COUNTER Application filed September 13, 1927. Serial No. 219,345.
This invention relates to an improvement in refrigerator display counters.
The object of the invention s to prov de upper and lower compartments in the refrlgerator display counter and to cause a cooling of each of these compartments independent of the other. In this way it is possible to provide diiferent temperatures in the separate compartments which prevents excesslve drying out of meats, cheese, etc., and allows various kinds of food products to be kept separate from each other.
The upper and lower compartments arranged in the display counter are entirely insulated from each other, and by arranging the cooling coils of each of these compartments in the upper portion thereof it is pos- 'sible to provide a greater amount of display surface while at the same time reducing thesize of the counter. The overhead coils also create a better circulation-of 'air through .the case, thereby decreasing the amount of power required to cool the separate compartments.
In the accompanying drawings:
Fig. 1 is a rear perspective View of the dis play counter;
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view therethrough; and
Fig. 3 is a artial longitudinal sectional view through the case.
The numeral 1 indicates the display counter as a whole, provided with the front top, and bottom glasses 2 and 3, respectively, and with sliding rear doors 4 and 5 forgaining access to the interior of the display counter. A lid 6 may cover the top of the counter and may be made removable for gaining access to the top of the case to clean out the drip pan therein.
Upper and lower display compartments 7 and 8 are insulated from each other by the intermediate partition 9, which keeps these compartments entirely independent ofeach other. For the purpose of cooling the separate display compartments7 and 8, cooling 0011s 10 and 11 are arranged respectively in the upper and lower compartments and preferably in the u per part of each of the compartments, as s iown especially in Fi 2. A drip pan 12 is arranged in sac? of the compartments beneath the coils and is provided with a drain 13 for carrying off any moisture that may accumulate in the pan. At least the lower pan is removable from the case to allow cleaning thereof.
The cooling coils 10.and 11 may be independently connected with a local mechanical source of refrigeration for cooling the separate compartments in a manner well known. to those familiar with the art.
The placing of the cooling coils in the upper portion of the case provides a greater circulation of air through the display compartments while at the same time decreasing the size of the display counter and providing a greater amount of display surface therein. The insulating of the upper and lower display compartments allows these'to be operated entirely independent from each other and carry different temperatures. This also prevents excessive drying out of meats and allows various kinds of food products to be kept separate,. making this form of display counter extremely useful for the ordinary market. 1
The insulation between the two compartments allows an absolutely even temperature being maintained in each of these compartments but permitting differences in temperature in the separate compartments according to the diiferent kinds of meats or food products being on display therein. This is an important item in the invention and has proved a very great improvement particularly over the usual display case, in which the entire case is in communication with only a single or multiple cooling means therein. The present display counter has the separate compartments arranged one above the other and separately cooled.
I claim 1. A refrigerator display counter having a plurality of compartments arranged oneabove another therein, said compartments being insulated from each other with no communication th'erebetween, and cooling coils arranged. in the upper portion of each of the compartments, the cooling coils foreach compartment being entirely separate from the coils for the other compartment to provide independent cooling thereof.
2. A refrigerator display counter having an insulating partition extending thereacross {dividing the counter into upper and lower compartments entirely insulated from each other with no communication therebetween, cooling coils mounted in the upper portions of the com artments, the coils for each compartment eing entirely independent .from the coils for the other compartment, to permit independent coolin of each of the compartments, and a com ined partition and dri pan arranged in the upper ortion of 16 e'ac of the compartments imme iately beneath the cooling coils mounted therein.
3. A refrigerator display counter having an insulating partition extending thereacross dividing the counter into upper and lower 20 compartments entirely insulated from each other, cooling coils mounted in the upper portion, only, ofeach of the compartments, the coils of each compartment being entirely inde endent from the others to permit inde- 2 pen ent cooling of each compartment, a drip pan arranged beneath the coils in each compartment, the lower drip an being removable, and a removable top or the counter for gaining access to the upper drip pan.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
